Last February I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, but I need to bridge the gap until then. Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them. Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $1,450 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $290 • Groceries and school meals: $360 • Rent top-up: $800 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
